HI everyone... having crockpot problems, so I did a google search for "cooking forums" to find as many opinions as possible! Can't wait to get home from work later and browse around some more... I'm from NJ, I'm a Middle School Music Teacher, I have a husband and two adorable little kiddies, and I like cooking/baking... looking for quick and easy recipes that are healthy!

Hey, thanks for the warm welcome! I got some great responses to my crockpot post. It's in the "specific chat, soups/stews" forum if you want to check it out.

Hmmm... well, not really easy I would say. Teaching at all has it's many challenges, but I get so very close to my students and just love them! I make sure I am having a lot of fun, because if I'm not... they're not! It's pretty exhausting though. I teach Chorus and teach from behind my piano. Lots of energy getting them inspired to sing, preparing concerts and stuff. I see my 200 kids all day and come home to my own two little kids.. I figure some day I'll sleep!

I am 67 yrs old and still remember my music teacher Edith Lindholm she was a true teacher and developed in me a love of classical music which is rare in a small child

I admire your profession. My daughter didn't do chorus, but was in the school orchestra (violin) from 4th - 12th grade. I am so grateful to those wonderful teachers for their input into her musical education.
